Sony Ericsson C901 GreenHeart and Naite GreenHeart Eco-friendly Cellphones

Sony Ericsson has introduced its new GreenHeart line of eco-friendly cellphones, the C901 GreenHeart and Naite GreenHeart. Sticking with the green theme, the flagship C901 GreenHeart includes an electronic in-phone manual thereby cutting down on paper and packaging. The phone's casing is said to be made from a minimum of 50% recycled plastics and includes an optimized display light sensor that uses less energy. The C901 GreenHeart ships with the MH300 GreenHeart headset, which is made of recycled plastics.

As well as featuring many of the innovations showcased in the C901 GreenHeart™, Naite will come to market with a low-power charger, the EP300 GreenHeart™ charger, one of the first of its kind to be introduced to the market. Thanks to these innovations, the overall CO² footprint over the full life of the C901 GreenHeart™ and Naite is reduced by 15%.

The first GreenHeart™ pioneer phone, the C901 GreenHeart™ will also include a WalkMate application, letting users really walk the talk about being more eco-friendly by comparing the steps they take with the equivalent journey travelled by car. And Naite includes an Ecomate application helping users make greener choices in their everyday life as well as a Carbon Footprint Calculator to show you how much CO² you are saving when you walk instead of taking the car.
